That’s no joke, 500 book publishers accepting manuscripts in 2026. In fact, it’s even more. Truth be told, there are about 525 publishers in all, 835 imprints. Over one thousand pages! But there’s no way we’re fitting 500 publishers here, not with real information that you as an author needs. So, we put together the biggest, best writer’s market book ever created. 100 percent.
Why a book? Because if you’ve been Googling terms like “book publishers accepting manuscripts,” then you know what insanity truly feels like, running around in circles with the same old information all over and over again. It’s maddening.
So, I have put together for you here a few samples, then one bigger sample of how these publisher listings appear in our book. We think you’re going to simply love it.
On with the show (these sample listings have been abridged)…
